Vase vs Bouquet
"Flowers are like
friends; They bring color to your world" - Unknown WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE?
Bouquets are a
selection of flowers and foliage that are artfully grouped together (or bound
together if a hand tied bouquet) to present a particular style, theme or
expression and wrapped in paper and cellophane. Water tubes are generally
attached to the stem to provide a water source while in transit or if hand tied
placed upright in boxes wtih a cello wrap and bag containing water for
hydrantion during transport. Bouquets are
often given to people who already have a vase or vessel to place them in, or
simply enjoy the pleasure of arranging flowers.
A bouquet on
arrival requires the recipient to cut the flowers and place them in their own
vase arrange unless presented in the hand tied variation where they only need to
cut the stems and place the tied bouquet directly into water.
Why give a
Bouquet?
If the recipient is
someone who receives flowers regularly they most likely will have a collection
of vases to work with. By forgoing the vase you can spend the additional funds
towards the flowers, either by sending a larger group of flowers than would be
in an arrangement or higher value flowers. When budgets are in consideration
this is an option. Flower
